2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

dual channel adapters Introduce lpfc_reset_barrier() function for resets on dual channel adapters Workaround for a hardware errata on dual channel asics. There is a potential for the chip to lock up on a reset if a shared dma engine is in use. The (ugly) work around requires a reset process which uses a mailbox command to synchronize the independent channels prior to the reset to avoid the issue. Unfortunately, the timing windows required to ensure this workaround succeeds are very specific, meaning we can't release the cpu during the barrier.

2005-12-13[SCSI] lpfc 8.1.1 : Add polled-mode supportJames.Smart@Emulex.Com
- Add functionality to run in polled mode only. Includes run time attribute to enable mode. - Enable runtime writable hba settings for coallescing and delay parameters Customers have requested a mode in the driver to run strictly polled. This is generally to support an environment where the server is extremely loaded and is looking to reclaim some cpu cycles from adapter interrupt handling. This patch adds a new "poll" attribute, and the following behavior: if value is 0 (default): The driver uses the normal method for i/o completion. It uses the firmware feature of interrupt coalesing. The firmware allows a minimum number of i/o completions before an interrupt, or a maximum time delay between interrupts. By default, the driver sets these to no delay (disabled) or 1 i/o - meaning coalescing is disabled. Attributes were provided to change the coalescing values, but it was a module-load time only and global across all adapters. This patch allows them to be writable on a per-adapter basis. if value is 1 : Interrupts are left enabled, expecting that the user has tuned the interrupt coalescing values. When this setting is enabled, the driver will attempt to service completed i/o whenever new i/o is submitted to the adapter. If the coalescing values are large, and the i/o generation rate steady, an interrupt will be avoided by servicing completed i/o prior to the coalescing thresholds kicking in. However, if the i/o completion load is high enough or i/o generation slow, the coalescion values will ensure that completed i/o is serviced in a timely fashion. if value is 3 : Turns off FCP i/o interrupts altogether. The coalescing values now have no effect. A new attribute "poll_tmo" (default 10ms) exists to set the polling interval for i/o completion. When this setting is enabled, the driver will attempt to service completed i/o and restart the interval timer whenever new i/o is submitted. This behavior allows for servicing of completed i/o sooner than the interval timer, but ensures that if no i/o is being issued, then the interval timer will kick in to service the outstanding i/o.
